As always, great advice.

Aquarium Heaters: Rena Cal Top Light Excel Heaters I found and really like this heater. I am going to use it for a 30 gallon reef setup I am starting. Should I go with the 100w or the 150w? It seems like the 150w would be a better choice because I won't have to worry about maxing it out to...

Thanks for the advice, I would have thought that placing them high/low would create a better circulation. Yote, your links are perfect. Those are both right in the price range I am looking for and at least look like quality products. They both look like they will do what I am looking for...

Not on my 30 gal. I want to set up the 30 gal. as a kind of test setup which would be moved into a larger (150 gal.?) setup down the road. The 30 gal. will then be made into a refugium. I am thinking that if I buy the Sea Clone 100 and have good luck with it (I've heard their seals tend to...

Thanks for all the advice. I will buy the heater, powerheads, lights and protein skimmer. Once I have those ready to go I will purchase the base rock, live rock and live sand and start them cycling. Should I buy the equipment as sized for the tank capacity or should I go one size larger to...

Everyone, thanks for the great advice. A very good friend of mine has had a saltwater reef setup for several months now and I learned very early on that if I was going to do this I was going to do it right, hence my first post I guess, trying to narrow down what I will need and what products...

I just bought a 30 gallon tank to start what I'd like to be a nice reef setup. I'm not looking for anything too crazy, more just to get started, work with a smaller setup and then use that experience when I buy my own house and can establish a permanent setup in something more like a 150...
